Critter Details

See Paxton *Arriving 7/12*’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Paxton is a sweet, gentle puppy who’s ready to bring love and laughter into your life. He’s doing great with potty training (he’s still a baby, so he’s learning!) and has the perfect puppy rhythm of fun zoomies followed by cozy naps. Paxton is social and friendly, and so far, he’s been good with everyone he’s met. He’s mostly quiet but will join in if the other dogs start barking, adding his own tiny voice to the chorus. One of the cutest things about Paxton? He loves to watch TV, staring at the screen like he understands every word—it's so funny and endearing. Whether he’s snuggling on the couch or playing with his toys, Paxton’s a joyful, cuddly soul looking for a family to grow up with and love forever.   I just joined my foster family and we are still getting acquainted with one another. Once they learn more about me, they will add more information here!   Paxton is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 7/12/2025 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 9am and noon. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame.  Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
